Food (4.00 / 2)
One must first agree on the purpose of the CAP. Is it to optimize food production or is it to maintain the ideal of picturesque family farms in an attractive rural setting?

Massive amounts of food are best produced by gigantic corporate-owned factory farms using high technology seed, fertilizer, implements, and pest management chemicals. Pastoral settings are best maintained by targeted price supports. What is the goal?
